Tired Mum Fitness

28/03/2025

I’m a qualified fitness/personal trainer.

I followed the rules. Exercised daily.
Before and after my C-section.

But I wasn’t getting stronger — I was getting injured.

Back pain. Knee issues. Tight hips. Exhaustion.

So I had to relearn everything.

Here’s what I wish someone told me:
👉 My biggest mistakes:
❌ I didn’t know how to switch off my overactive six-pack (re**us abdominis) to only engage my deep core
❌ I jumped into “big” workouts while still exhausted and not sleeping
❌ I focused on stretching my tight hips without strengthening my glutes and posterior chain

👉 The most common mistakes I see in other mums:
❌ Crunches & planks too early
❌ Ignoring posture & glute rehab
❌ Doing too much too soon

That’s why I’m thinking of putting together a free guide with 3 safe exercises that work — whether you’ve done “nothing” or you’ve “tried everything.”
